Going Kinnick for the first time in about 20 years, also bringing 3 of 4 of my kids. I have been looking forward to this for awhile. Hopefully KF's disdain for PJ Fleck continues and run up the score.

How close is Moss to coming back? The secondary has seemed discombobulated since he's been out.

Hopefully this week. Should have a good chance to get Moss and Roberts back.

It seemed like the pass rush got a lot better just from having deonte Craig in the rotation. Can’t imagine what getting moss and roberts back would do.

Minnesota hands the ball off a ton and when they don’t hand it off they throw nothing but slants. They’re down to their 4th string running back who looks pretty good. Their line is big but can be easily neutralized with quickness. When they’re beat they hold like some mother fuckers.

The Minnesota Kinnick losing streak will continue with Padilla

Their best WR missed most of the game yesterday too. Illinois made their offense look very pedestrian.

Their LT #70 is a human turnstile. He alone has given up like 9 sacks against us since 2018.

I’ll be in attendance. Minnesota is a real schizo football team. They’re battling injuries at RB but still dangerous thru the air and likely better on defense than fucking Northwestern.

Minnesota has less passing yards than we do this season. And now their best WR might be out.

Minnesota starts 8 seniors on both offense and defense. Iowa starts 1 and 3, respectively.

I keep seeing people thinking Petras might start. They would be absolutely crazy to do that and it would be borderline cruel to the kid to do that at Kinnick.

Indeed, it’s concerning that he could or would get booed if he started. I Wouldn’t get any joy from that.

I don’t want to see Spencer again unless Iowa is up 55-7 and KF puts him in for the last series in the victory formation. Then he can clap until his heart is content.

If they start Petras against Minnesota and the offense goes three and out on the first series, it is going to get ugly. I can’t imagine they want to risk putting him through that.

If his shoulder wasn’t good enough to go on Saturday it’s not likely to be good to go for practice this week. They’re not going to trot him out there with limited reps after what he showed and Padilla showed yesterday.
